Hi Guys , its starting to get cold here in MA , I change my radiator on my 99 Ex 4.0 auto , they gave me a full core instead of the 1/4 core , so now it takes allot more fluid but that is not the problem , I only notice the radiator was full core instead of 1/4 core so I thought better for me , not so ! so I'm noticing that it doesn't get to full hot and when I put the heat on the needle drops to almost cold , if I drive it more than 1 hour than it gets hot enough that I can use the heat , the dilemma is I leave 20 from work so I can't drive around for 20min , I did put a new 198 degree thermostat since I know this might happen , should I get the 1/4 core ? any ideas , I guess I can let it run for 20min but I live in a Condo ! so I like to drive to work instead of walk to work
